Operations

Products and/or services of Pan American Silver

  • Silver Segment Operations: Silver mining operations extract silver alongside gold, zinc, lead, and copper across multiple underground and open-pit facilities, including the La Colorada and Juanicipio mines in Mexico, Huaron in Peru, Cerro Moro in Argentina, and San Vicente in Bolivia.
  • Gold Segment Operations: Gold mining assets process precious metals across underground and surface operations in South and North America, featuring major producing complexes such as the Jacobina mine in Brazil, El Peñon and Minera Florida in Chile, and Shahuindo in Peru.
  • Canadian Gold Mining Operations: Underground mining operations at the Timmins complex in Ontario, Canada, process gold ores using conventional cyanide leaching and carbon-in-pulp recovery methods to deliver steady gold output from mature Canadian mining infrastructure.
  • Base Metal By-product Recovery: Flotation and processing facilities extract lead, zinc, and copper concentrates as secondary products from poly-metallic silver ores across South American and Mexican operations, supporting overall mine site economics and commercial mineral revenue.
  • Advanced Silver Exploration Projects: Resource evaluation and development programs target high-grade silver and polymetallic mineralization, advancing strategic assets including the La Colorada Skarn project in Mexico and the large-scale Navidad silver deposit in Argentina toward future operational viability.
  • Care and Maintenance Mineral Assets: Care and maintenance programs preserve infrastructure, environmental management, and community engagement at non-operating silver and gold properties, including the Escobal mine in Guatemala and the Dolores open-pit facility in Mexico.
